Skinny Deep Dish Taco Pizza

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

• • 1 lb. ground turkey
• • 1/2 cup chopped onion
• • 14.5oz can diced tomatoes with green chilies
• • 1 packet reduced-sodium taco seasoning
• • 3/4 cup water
• • 1 1/2 cans reduced fat crescent rolls
• • 1 can fat-free re-fried beans (optional for added fiber)
• • 1 cup cheddar cheese
• • Salsa (to garnish)
• • Fat Free Sour Cream (to garnish)

Instructions

1. Brown meat and onion in a large skillet and drain well
2. Add water, seasoning, and drained tomatoes to meat/onion mixture
3. In a 9x13 baking dish lightly coated with cooking spray - press crescent rolls into the bottom and halfway up the sides
4. Spread re-fried beans on top of the crescent roll layer (Yes, this is harder than it sounds...just do it gently and your rolls wont get too mangled.) This step can be left out, I just added it for the fiber.
5. Spoon meat mixture over the bean layer
6. Bake at 425 degrees F for 12 minutes - remove from oven and top with cheese
7. Return to the oven for 5 minutes (or until the cheese melts and the edges of the crust are browned)
8. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving
